Rozsival finally escaping concussion's clutches
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Michal Rozsival smiled when asked if he had any concerns about playing back-to-back games just one week after returning to the Coyotes lineup.
Whats too soon? he said after Thursdays 4-2 win over Edmonton. It felt like forever.
Time moves slowly for most injured players as they work their way back to health. Time absolutely crawls for guys with concussions.

Why the Hate on Rozsival?
Getty ImagesLast night, despite recording a goal and an assist in a 3-1 victory over the New Jersey Devils, defenseman Michal Rozsival still heard the boos from the Madison Square Garden crowd. Rozsival, who is in his second to last year of his contract with the Rangers, has arguably been one of the better defensemen on this team so far, and leads the entire blue-line in scoring...

The Pre-Game: Rozsival Ready To Go Against The Predators
Some quick pre-game thoughts..- Michal Rozsival is good to go tonight and will make his return. If he continues to play the way he did before he was injured he'll be a big boost to the Rangers back line. It's a tough call who is going to sit tonight. Neither Gilroy, Sauer, or Eminger have played themselves out of the lineup in his absence. My guess is Gilroy will be wearing...

Key Decisions To Be Made When Rozsival Returns
Michal Rozsival has been a relatively under appreciated player by the fans. Rozsival plays 20 minutes per game, and while he does not excel in any particular facet of the game, he is a good overall defender that has become an essential piece on the Rangers blue line. Rozsival went down with a sprained shoulder two weeks ago, and the Rangers did not call up any replacements from...

Playing Against Rangers Means Something to Rozsival
Andrew Gross at Rangers Rants caught up with former Ranger Michal Rozsival to discuss facing the Blueshirts for the first time since being traded to the Coyotes for Wojtek Wolski last season..."I think any player, when they play against their old team, it means a little more to you," Rozsival said. "You have memories. When you get traded, you want to do well. You&...

Losing Rozsival Creates Huge Void For Rangers
For many Rangers fans, especially coming into the season the thought of Michal Rozsival missing from the lineup was not necessarily a bad thing. In fact for some it was advocated as the next move to make now that Wade Redden had finally been banished to Hartford. I never bought into that theory and with his play so far this season Rozsival has proven not only to be a valuable asset...

Michal Rozsival’s Strong Play
Michal Rozsival. His name will never be popular with New York Rangers fans. It also remains a fact that at $5m per season the veteran Czech blue liner is nicely overpaid but it’s come to the stage where Rangers fans need to acknowledge how vital a presence Rozsival has become on a young and emerging defensive corps. Rozsival was poor (at best) for the first half of last year following...

What The Rozsival Trade Means For The Cap
When the Rangers traded Michal Rozsival for Wojtek Wolski, they took on a contract identical in length (one remaining year after this season), but at a $1.2 million discount. Using CapGeek’s daily tracker, the Rangers bank an extra $6,000 per day towards this year’s trade deadline (using the formula of salary / 186 day regular season). That is roughly an extra $288...

Rangers Acquire Wojtek Wolski For Michal Rozsival
Welcome to New York
With Alex Frolov done for the season and Vinny Prospal yet to play, Glen Sather made a move to acquire much needed top six depth. In trading Michal Rozsival, the Rangers will likely have the youngest d-corps in the NHL. This is both a blessing and a burden as the Rangers will likely need to acquire a veteran blueliner for a playoff run. However, in acquiring 24...

Not a whole lot out of practice today as the lines were the same as the last game, though no definitive answer on whether Boogaard will play tonight against the Bruins. If I had to guess I would say yes and White goes back to the press box, but we should know for sure at 5ish. When asked by about it Andrew Gross reports Boogaard replied, "Ask Torts or Glen," while smiling...

They have three straight wins after defeating the struggling New Jersey Devils 3-1 at the Garden.
After a string of injuries (Prospal, Christensen, Gaborik, Drury) and three straight losses, the season was quickly looking grim for the Blueshirts. But with some defensive adjustments, strong goaltending and a...

The Rangers May Miss Rozsival In The Short Term
Don’t get me wrong, I love the trade of Michal Rozsival for Wojtek Wolski. But for a while now, Ranger fans have been relatively unkind (understatement) to the veteran defenseman. There was some logic there, as Rozsival was being paid $5 million and wasn’t contributed offensively the way he should be. He was also prone to making big mistakes in his own zone, and seemed...

Dubinsky, Rozsival Amongst Rangers Time On Ice Leaders
Going into a season, it is generally obvious which players the coaching staff will rely on heavily throughout the year. For the Rangers, if you had to pick players that the coaching staff was going to rely on, the guesses would include the usual suspects, plus maybe more responsibility on the third line of Sean Avery, Derek Stepan, and Ruslan Fedotenko. However, due to the rash...
